    Anyone Following This Insane Story ..Soccer Team In Thailand Trapped In Cave?
    I have rarely heard a story like this, most of caves flooded and cannot get to them

    Bailing out water to keep them alive.............running out of oxygen too

    They have a few days left to live

          how the hell did they get 2.5 miles into the system before realizing they were screwed..

          I dont see how these kids are gonna make it.. It's an 11 hour round trip to get to them..

          6 hours against current and tiny openings .. then 5 hours back..

          That Seal that died today was delivering air and ran out of air himself..

          I saw video of the conditions in there.. You couldn't get me to walk 100 feet into that damm cave even if it was dry ..

                  They walked but a huge rain storm flooded it after they were in there.

                            anyone?????????????

                            you always hear about medals being given to those soldiers that went back to rescue others

                            but they lost 3 or 4 trying to save 1 person who was already dead


                            these are kids so it is even tougher and we know they are alive

                            but it is a good question, like the train heading to kill 5 people but you are in charge of lines....do you change the line of train to save 5 and kill one



                            in this scenario, you have no clue how many you might save or how many might die trying to save them

                            i find this scenario very compelling from a math standpoint since there is a variable you do not know the answer to

                                  I would NEVER go into any cave far enough to have 'light disappear' it's just retarded especially with kids, and somehow the person supervising them decided to wander 2+ kilometers into a cave? how dumb are you?

                                    Not sure what kind of vacation I would be on where i thought it was a good idea to go 2.5 miles into a damm cave in Thailand.. I am guessing this coach was trying to build team moral or something because the team sucked and needed to turn the corner..

                                        Yet we completely ignore starving children in Africa who have literally 0% chance to succeed. This is happening on a daily basis. Not to take away from the kids in Thailand, but our focus should be on the African children.

                                                  Last time I checked one of the rescue divers died drowning.

                                                          why are you posting here instead of helping them?

                                                          the least you could do is be on freerice.com and help out???

                                                            How much did you send to Africa this month??

                                                            ~~~~~~~~~~~~

                                                            US children go to bed hungry EVERY NIGHT.
                                                            Poverty & Hunger

                                                            1 in 6 children in the United States face hunger.

                                                            As you might imagine, hunger is a problem that most often affects low-income families. A common way we measure poverty is the federal poverty level (FPL), a number set by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The federal poverty level is the minimum amount of money a family needs each year to afford the necessities of life: food, clothing, shelter and transportation.
                                                            In 2016, the federal poverty level was $24,300 for a family of four.
                                                            Tragically, a huge number of Americans fall below this line. Over 40 million people (almost 13% of all Americans) lived in poverty in 2016. Of that number, 13 million were children.
                                                            Of course, this number is a minimum. Families making twice that much are still considered low-income by most experts, and likely struggle to make ends meet.


                                                            Food Insecurity

                                                            More than 13 million children in the United States live in "food insecure" homes, according to recent research from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). That means those families don't regularly have enough food to eat, the most basic of all human needs.
                                                            For a more comprehensive understanding of food insecurity, we recommend the USDA’s annual report on Household Food Security in the United States.
